What is the name of your state? North Carolina
I have had a nice, moderately priced home for sale in a very normal subdivision for about 5 months. The neighbor on one side is a nut. Her yard is maticulous, and thinks we never do enough to maintain our house. As an example, she recently cut down a 4 inch hardwood that hung over her fence without asking us. We know she did it because she admits it. She still thinks she was justified.
She thinks our house is overpriced and that we are misrepresenting the square footage. We know for SURE that we are not misrepresenting the square footage because our realtor hired an appraiser to measure it. We told the woman next door that we had the square footage measured by an appraiser, and even took her inside and showed her around so that she would know that we aren't lying to potential buyers. She STILL thinks we are misrepresenting the square footage. She thinks there is NO WAY it is as big as HER house.
She admits that she talks to potential buyers, and we believe that she is telling them bad things about the house. She has said directly that she doesn't want a black family living next to her, even though there are many black people in the neighborhood already. About 60 buyers have looked at the house over the last 5 months, so there is certainly interest in the house. Is there anything I can do to stop my nutty neigbor from chasing off buyers?
